Bristol.Elizabeth Bristol is an esteemed author. While working as a missionary in Palestine and Mozambique, Elizabeth found purpose for her wanderlust. She loved feeding people and spending a night each week on top of the Mount of Temptation fasting and praying. She loved the miracles and healings she saw, even though she often wondered, Will I live through this?She'd always thought hanging out with God would be boring and she'd have no cool friends. What a big lie that turned out to be. She's driven across the country 48 times often arriving at “just the right time” to process a road-killed moose or throw on a hoop skirt and dance the Virginia Reel at a Civil War reenactment. She's spoken to all kinds of groups and worked as a camp counselor where she created a virtual mission trip for kids.==========Coffee With Jesus Website: https://coffeewithjesus.info/Coffee With Jesus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cwj2011/Coffee With Jesus YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKsQBybBdPxlSxvmWYfcMzQCoffee With Jesus Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/CoffeeWithJesus

Tour d'Afrique à vélo: le parcours fou de la Marocaine Meryem Belkihel pour «Donner de l'espoir aux femmes»

C'est une « sortie » à vélo qui aura duré trois ans. À bord de son Gravel – un vélo mi-route mi-VTT, Meryem Belkihel 30 ans, a réussi le pari un peu fou de faire un tour d'Afrique, seule. 34 000 km parcourus, 33 pays traversés, la jeune Marocaine a finalement achevé son aventure début novembre 2025, à Madagascar. Elle voulait « découvrir l'Afrique », comprendre les pressions exercées sur l'écologie, rencontrer ses voisines et voisins de continent, montrer à qui la croisait sur son passage qu'on peut vivre ses rêves, en étant une femme, seule. Meryem Belkihel raconte son périple militant. De notre correspondante à Antananarivo, Sourire vissé au visage, Meryem Belkihel savoure ses premières journées depuis trois ans sans pédaler. À ses poignets, plusieurs dizaines de bracelets, souvenirs peu encombrants qui lui ont été offerts au fil de ses rencontres.« Celui-là, je l'ai eu en Éthiopie. Celui-ci, c'est, ici, Madagascar. Ça, c'est la Tanzanie, lui, le Kenya, l'Ouganda, l'Afrique du Sud, le Burundi, le Zimbabwe, celui-là l'Eswatini et ça, c'est Mozambique. » Son périple à vélo, elle l'a documenté. Caméra embarquée, drone, elle a filmé ses traversées solitaires et ses découvertes, parfois choquantes. « Le changement climatique, je voulais voir ça de près. L'impact sur notre continent, sur l'Afrique. Et partager aussi parce qu'on voit ça beaucoup, mais parfois, on se dit " Mais non ! Ce n'est pas réel ! », on trouve des excuses. « Là par exemple, c'est une vidéo que j'ai prise à l'est du Cameroun. Ces tronçonneuses que vous entendez, ce sont celles de gens qui travaillent pour une grande société qui coupe les arbres de plus que 100 ans pour les envoyer à l'étranger, en Europe et en Chine. Et là ça m'a choqué parce que pour couper un arbre, il faut en abattre 20 autres. Et ça, c'est tous les jours dans cette forêt du Cameroun. Même chose pour la République centrafricaine. » La jeune femme, informaticienne à Casablanca, avoue avoir semé la gêne dans son entourage : « Les gens ne me comprenaient pas. Ce que j'ai fait, ce n'est pas dans notre culture. On me trouvait bizarre. Mon désir de partir seule, ça a choqué ma famille, mes amis. On me demandait de rester, d'acheter une maison, une voiture, me marier, avoir des enfants. Non ! Moi, je voulais donner de l'espoir aux femmes et aussi donner l'exemple d'une femme marocaine, africaine ! » Un mental renforcé par les épreuves Meryem nous montre sur son téléphone un échange animé, qu'elle a filmé durant son périple : « Là, c'est une vidéo que j'ai tournée quand je suis arrivée au Ghana. J'étais en train de parler avec un vendeur dans un magasin de vélo, pour essayer de réparer mon dérailleur et là, il y a quelqu'un qui était juste à côté. Il a commencé à dire : " Non non non, ce que tu racontes n'est pas vrai, arrête de mentir ! Ce n'est pas possible de venir du Maroc et parcourir plus que 6 000 km à vélo ! " Bah, je lui ai dit, « Je suis Marocaine. Si toi, tu n'es pas fort, moi, je le suis et je peux le faire ! » Les galères, raconte-t-elle, elle en a vécu. Partout. Crevaisons. Casse. Pépins de santé. Chaque épreuve a contribué à renforcer un peu plus son mental d'acier : « J'ai eu quatre fois le palu, j'ai eu la typhoïde, j'ai eu beaucoup d'infections dentaires. Mon visage a été gonflé comme si j'avais pris du botox » rit-elle. « J'étais au milieu de la jungle, au Cameroun. Il y avait un centre de soin, sans eau ni électricité. C'était fou. Mais je n'ai jamais eu l'idée de dire "j'arrête, je n'en peux plus". J'ai appris durant ce voyage que si quelque chose arrive, "it is what it is". Ça m'a appris à rester toujours positive, à apprendre que chaque problème a une solution et que tout est possible. » Marquée, elle le restera. Par l'hospitalité des Guinéens, par la solidarité et la bienveillance des Malgaches, la beauté des paysages de Namibie, du Nigeria, de l'Angola. De retour au Maroc, elle a déjà prévu la suite : écrire un livre, monter le documentaire de son aventure avec les centaines d'heures de rush, et qui sait, reprendre un jour son vélo pour se rendre au point le plus au nord de la planète.

We're live in the tropical forests of Mozambique, in one of the most remote safari camps in the world. This episode was recorded right after hunting two magnificent old dagga boy cape buffalo bulls in the floodplains of the Zambeze River delta, while the experience was still fresh and raw.  One buffalo was taken with a 125-year-old Westley Richards double rifle in .450/400 Nitro; the other with a Winchester Model 70 .375 H&H. Early November heat combined with unseasonal rains combined to make it both humid and torrid... a proper tropical experience. We waded waist-deep through crocodile-infested swamps, bled on the head-high sawgrass, and walked miles across broken, crusted mud flats. It was an experience we'll remember for a lifetime, and here we share the stories.

We dive deep into a bracket-style tournament featuring 32 of the most iconic UK rap albums, exploring the soundscapes, lyrical prowess, and cultural impact that these records have left on the scene. Join us as we dissect some of the greatest and most controversial picks in UK rap history.Main Content:**Setting the Stage: Understanding the Bracket** The podcast opens with hosts Sean and Sam setting the stage for a unique tournament format. Sean explains the concept of a bracket, clarifying that it's not about declaring the absolute best albums, but rather engaging in a spirited discussion about significant works in UK rap. Sam humorously adds that among the 32 albums selected, there are certainly some that could be classified as the worst, setting a light-hearted tone for the debate ahead.**Round One: Heavyweights Clash** The first matchup featured Kano's "Hoodies All Summer" against Ghetts' "Conflict of Interest." Right from the start, Sam votes for Kano, citing the album's emotional resonance and its cultural significance. He argues that "Hoodies All Summer" is not just an album but a representation of life experiences in East London. Alexander T passionately supports this view, labeling it as potentially the greatest UK rap album of all time, underlining the powerful storytelling and the nostalgic themes present in tracks like "Class of Day Job."In contrast, Neil champions "Conflict of Interest," emphasizing Ghetts' growth as an artist. He highlights the album's polished production and standout tracks like "Mozambique" and "Fine Wine," pointing out how these songs draw listeners into Ghetts world. The discussion highlights the subjective nature of music appreciation, as both albums boast strong arguments for their respective merits.**Sibling Rivalry: Skepta vs. JME** Next up is a face-off between brothers Skepta and JME, with Skepta's "Konnichiwa" taking on JME's "Grime MC." Sam makes a bold statement, arguing that while JME is a better rapper, his focus on traditional grime limits his appeal. Skepta's versatility and the cultural impact of "Konnichiwa" ultimately sway the group's decision, with all but one member opting for Skepta's classic.**Nostalgic Sounds: Kano's "Home Sweet Home" vs. Sway's "This is My Demo"** The conversation continues with another Kano album, "Home Sweet Home," facing off against Sway's "This Is My Demo." Neil expresses a strong preference for Kano, citing it as a pivotal moment in UK rap. He recalls how Kano's debut was among the first to showcase the narrative depth and seriousness of the genre. The hosts reminisce about the early days of grime and how Kano's work laid the groundwork for future artists.**Conclusion: Key Takeaways** Each album discussed not only reflects the individual artist's journey but also the evolution of the genre itself. From Kano's poignant storytelling to Skepta's groundbreaking influence, these albums have shaped the landscape of UK rap. As listeners, we are encouraged to revisit these classics and appreciate the artistry that continues to resonate today.

We live in a time of automation and robotics; the machines run the factories, and AI will soon take all the jobs. Yet, even today, there are certain niche jobs where only an animal will do. Comedian and biologist Simon Watt meets some of them and the people who train them, study them, and love them. He starts with a business of ferrets (yes, that is their collective noun) at the National Ferret School in Derbyshire, who have swapped rabbit holes and trouser legs for drain-clearing, rewiring, and laying fibre optic cables. Ferret Trainer James McKay demonstrates why they are perfect for the job, as he casually folds one trainee into a tight pretzel.Simon visits the HQ of Medical Detection Dogs, a training facility in Milton Keynes where dogs are being trained to sniff the tell-tale signs of a host of diseases. You may have heard of their 'cancer dogs', but it goes much further - epilepsy, malaria, Parkinson's, even Covid-19. Dr Claire Guest explains.Although we have no real idea exactly how dogs do what they do, AI may be on the cusp of solving this puzzle for us. Simon speaks to Dr Andreas Mershin from start-up Realnose, which is developing “electronic noses".Finally, Simon meets some real heroes - HeroRats, to be precise. Not the same species that haunts our sewers, these are African Giant Pouched Rats, and their job as landmine detection specialists is saving lives across Thailand, Mozambique, Cambodia and Zimbabwe. Dr Cynthia Fast from UCLA trains them for the job.Presenter: Simon Watt Producer: Emily Knight

Les conflits au Nigeria «ne sont pas fondamentalement d'ordre confessionnels»

À Washington, le Congrès américain doit examiner ce jeudi la requête de Donald Trump, qui veut intégrer le Nigeria à la liste des pays « particulièrement préoccupants » en matière de liberté religieuse. Ce vote tombera 48 heures après l'attaque meurtrière d'une église de l'Ouest du pays pendant une messe retransmise en direct. Les chrétiens sont-ils vraiment persécutés au Nigeria ? Quelles seraient les conséquences d'un vote pro-Trump au Congrès ? Marc-Antoine Pérouse de Montclos est directeur de recherches à l'IRD, l'Institut de Recherche pour le Développement. Il répond à Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Marc-Antoine Pérouse de Montclos, est-ce que les chrétiens sont persécutés au Nigeria ?   Marc-Antoine Pérouse de Montclos : Il peut y avoir certaines zones où il y a des discriminations contre les minorités. Donc en l'occurrence confessionnelles, ça peut être des mouvements évangéliques ou même des catholiques, notamment dans le Nord à dominante musulmane. Mais il faut voir qu'à l'inverse, les musulmans peuvent aussi être victimes de ces discriminations dans des régions à dominante chrétienne, plutôt dans le sud-est par exemple. Alors il y avait une attaque qui avait frappé les esprits. C'était le jour de Noël de l'année 2012. C'était dans la région d'Abuja, à Matala Zuba précisément. Un commando armé avait attaqué une église en pleine messe de Noël. Le prêtre et cinq fidèles avaient été tués. Oui, il y a quelquefois des églises qui sont prises pour cible, notamment par des groupes jihadistes comme la mouvance Boko Haram dans le nord-est, qui là, en l'occurrence, avait frappé plus dans la région centrale autour de la capitale fédérale. Il faut savoir que dans les nombreuses violences qui agitent le Nigeria, il y a également des mosquées qui sont prises pour cible et qui vont être brûlées, qui vont être attaquées, pas forcément d'ailleurs par des chrétiens. Souvent, les groupes jihadistes s'en prennent d'abord aux musulmans, et l'essentiel des victimes, par exemple de Boko Haram, ce sont des musulmans, rappelons-le, parce que c'est mathématique. Ils agissent dans une région qui est surtout peuplée de musulmans. Leurs victimes sont essentiellement civiles et parmi leurs victimes, il y a aussi effectivement des chrétiens qui peuvent être ciblés comme chrétiens. Alors tout de même, c'était le 16 novembre dernier à Rome, le pape Léon XIV s'est adressé à la foule place Saint-Pierre, en dénonçant les persécutions des chrétiens à travers le monde, notamment « au Bangladesh, au Nigeria, au Mozambique et au Soudan ». Oui, alors il y a un index qui sort sur les persécutions des chrétiens dans le monde et qui donc fait état d'homicides en arguant que ces personnes sont tuées non pas pour être dépouillées, volées de leur voiture ou de leur portefeuille, mais bien à cause de leur dénomination chrétienne. En réalité, il y a des chrétiens qui sont ciblés au Nigeria dans le cadre de conflits fonciers, notamment dans la ceinture centrale du Nigeria, qui voient des éleveurs musulmans s'opposer à des cultivateurs chrétiens. Et là, effectivement, les églises peuvent être des marqueurs identitaires. Donc, on va brûler un village, on va aussi s'en prendre à une église. Ça peut être aussi des lieux de refuge. Et donc effectivement, là, on voit aussi des ciblages autour de lieux de culte qui visent explicitement les chrétiens. Mais derrière, les dessous de ces conflits ne sont pas fondamentalement d'ordre confessionnel. Ce n'est pas sur la manière de prier ou de croire. Ce sont d'abord des conflits fonciers, des conflits politiques, sur le partage du pouvoir, sur la compétition pour les ressources. Et puis, ne l'oublions pas, au Nigeria, plus de 200 millions d'habitants, il y a une pression démographique qui s'accroît. Et donc, dans certains cas, on voit que ces conflits fonciers opposent des chrétiens aux musulmans. Que pensez-vous de Donald Trump qui accuse le président Bola Tinubu de tolérer les meurtres de chrétiens par des terroristes islamistes ? Oui, alors le point important, c'est qu'il n'accuse pas le gouvernement de commettre le génocide lui-même mais de laisser faire. Donc effectivement, il y a un gros problème au niveau de l'appareil coercitif du Nigeria avec une police qui, disons, ne performe pas, qui n'est pas professionnelle, qui tue énormément aussi beaucoup de civils. La même chose pour l'armée. Il se trouve qu'en plus il y a une configuration en ce moment politique au Nigeria qui fait que le président est musulman et le vice-président est également musulman. Or, d'habitude, il y a une règle non-écrite, ce n'est pas une règle constitutionnelle, mais qui veut que si le président est musulman, son vice-président sera chrétien et inversement. Donc là, on a une configuration un peu particulière qui va donner du grain à moudre aussi sur tous ces lobbys évangéliques qui s'en prennent aux musulmans, à l'élite musulmane du nord qui est accusée de laisser faire les « terroristes peuls », puisque les éleveurs peuls sont tous rangés dans la catégorie des terroristes, ce qui tend à donner une dimension très ethnique à ces conflits, quoi qu'il en soit de leur aspect confessionnel. Aujourd'hui, cette croisade en faveur des chrétiens du Nigeria est renforcée par une superstar du rap américain, Nicki Minaj. Est-ce que cela ne pèse pas dans l'opinion publique américaine et dans le vote à venir du Congrès américain ce jeudi ? Alors, le fait qu'il y ait des stars du rap qui s'engagent effectivement dans cette campagne va évidemment jouer en faveur des lobbys évangéliques du Nigeria qui pressent le Congrès de mettre en place des sanctions économiques. Alors eux demandent des sanctions économiques, ils ne demandent pas une intervention militaire. Et de toute façon, même les leaders chrétiens du Nigeria se sont opposés à l'éventualité d'une intervention militaire américaine qui, dans tous les cas, est complètement improbable. C'est le pays le plus peuplé d'Afrique. On ne voit pas très bien comment l'armée américaine pourrait intervenir dans un terrain plus que compliqué, puisque là, vous allez poster des soldats américains autour de chaque église de l'Etat du Plateau, dans le centre du pays. Ça n'a absolument aucun sens. À lire aussiLes propos de Trump sur le Nigeria sont «irresponsables et criminels», dit le prix Nobel Wole Soyinka

10% GDP boost to Global South from clean energy transition

A new University of Oxford report finds a rapid switch to renewables could double energy-sector productivity in low-to-middle income economies within 25 years. In many countries, this would result in a GDP boost by mid-century of around 10%. "Opting for clean energy could be an economic boon for solar-rich countries such as Burundi, DR Congo and Mozambique," says Professor Sam Fankhauser, Interim Director of Oxford Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment. "For context, 10% of GDP is roughly the amount countries typically spend on public health. These productivity gains are unprecedented, and it could be the developing countries that benefit the most." The importance and benefits of a clean energy transition Renewable energy boosts productivity in two ways: more electricity is generated per dollar invested, with fewer losses (for example to heat) compared to fossil fuels, and renewable energy is cheaper - enabling households, businesses and industries to run for longer at lower cost. The report quantifies this gain over the next 25 years and finds that renewable energy productivity gains are much higher in the Global South, resulting in an important advantage in the growing net zero economy. Renewables could finally start to close the income gap between rich and poor countries, say the authors. The report, part of a three-year research programme funded by energy company SSE, also investigates how renewable energy investment has already boosted GDP in low and middle-income countries as compared to fossil fuels. Spending on renewables gets multiplied in the local economy much more than fossil fuels - along the supply chain and through local wages. The analysis shows that from 2017-2022 this has boosted the GDP of the 100 largest developing countries (excluding China) by a combined US$1.2 trillion - the equivalent of 2 to 5% of GDP for most nations. In COP30 host Brazil, renewable investments raised GDP by US$128 billion. However, the authors caution that the economic benefits of renewables do not automatically flow to host communities. Instead, deliberate benefit-sharing mechanisms such as community benefit funds and co-ownership are needed. The report concludes by emphasising the potential of distributed renewable energy for accessibility and inclusion. "The success of the renewable energy transition will depend not only on lower costs and higher productivity - both of which are now all but guaranteed - but on our collective ability to ensure that its benefits are fairly and widely shared, leaving no community behind," says Professor Fankhauser. Rhian Kelly, Chief Sustainability Officer at SSE, comments: "Meaningful consultation must sit at the heart of every approach to community engagement. The most successful models go well beyond minimum requirements, reflecting the priorities and context of local people. By sharing learnings, we can identify what works best - and ensure that dedicated community funds are transparent, flexible, truly responsive to local needs. In the UK and Ireland, these funds have already supported more than 12,000 projects. With clear policy frameworks - including minimum contribution thresholds and standardised benefit-sharing agreements - we can build on this success and deliver lasting benefits for communities."

Can hunting truly support conservation? Does fortress conservation offer a sustainable solution for protecting wildlife in the long term? And how do we balance the needs of impoverished communities with the preservation of fragile ecosystems? Our guest today is Mike Arnold, a Distinguished Research Professor and Head of the Department of Genetics at the University of Georgia and a lifelong hunter. Mike has published over 220 articles in outdoor magazines and hundreds of research papers on conservation biology. He's also the author of "Bringing Back the Wild: Stories from Revitalised Ecosystems Around the World and How Sport Hunting Supports Them". In our conversation, Mike tackles these difficult questions head-on, drawing from his experiences across the globe.Mike explains how private hunting concessions in places like Mozambique have maintained stable rhino populations whilst nearby national parks have lost over 90% of their animals to poaching. He shares fascinating insights from his travels to locations as varied as Mexico's Yucatan, Scotland's hunting estates, and Sweden's forests - including his quest for a rare red-coloured West African Savannah buffalo. What emerges is a nuanced picture of conservation that refuses easy answers. Mike discusses the biological realities of managing herbivore populations, the importance of protecting entire ecosystems rather than just game species, and how economic benefits to landowners create incentives for habitat protection.The conversation takes an honest look at challenges facing hunting and conservation. Mike and I discuss the troubling demographics of hunting organisations, where finding anyone under 50 is increasingly difficult. We explore the tensions between rewilding advocates and traditional land users, the concept of "fortress conservation", and whether current systems can survive long-term pressures from growing inequality. We argue that addressing poverty is essential for conservation success, and that getting young people engaged with nature, not TikTok and PlayStation, is crucial for the future. Whether you hunt or not, this episode offers valuable perspectives on one of conservation's most contentious subjects.Buy Mike's Book: https://amzn.to/3WLkFe2Subscribe to Tommy's Outdoors: Conservation and Science NewsletterSupport the Podcast and Buy Me a Coffee.Recommended Books: tommysoutdoors.com/booksMerch: tommysoutdoors.com/shopFollow Tommy's Outdoors on Bluesky, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and FacebookThe guest featured in this episode paid a nominal guesting fee.

Martha Biondi tells the story of one such group of activists who built an internationalist movement in Chicago committed to liberation everywhere but especially to ending colonialism and apartheid in Africa.

Steeped from an early age in stories of Garveyism and labor militancy, Nesbitt was powerfully influenced by his encounters with the exiled African radicals he met in Dar es Salaam, London, and across the United States. Operating domestically and abroad, Nesbitt's cohort worked closely with opponents of Portuguese and white minority rule in Mozambique, Angola, and South Africa.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 22nd of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Gospel of John 2:11: “This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.” Jesus turned the water into wine at the marriage feast in Cana, the first miracle. My dear friend, I want to say something to you. One genuine miracle equals a thousand sermons. I really believe it with all of my heart. Jesus was known by the miracles He performed, not one, but many. But the sad thing was, He performed very few miracles in His home town, Nazareth, because of the unbelief of the people. Jesus could perform very few. I want to tell you, it wasn't His sermons that convicted the people, it was the signs and wonders and miracles. Apart from the sermon on the mount, I don't know of too many other sermons that Jesus preached, but miracles, one after another, and I want to tell you that faith begets faith. Faith is contagious. When you see a miracle, it changes the whole situation. I remember many years ago, preaching right up in the northern part of Mozambique, a place called Montepuez. It was a huge meeting. The soccer field was full of people, but nothing was happening. No one was responding. I looked up and I saw there was a line of muslims right along the back of the soccer field. I could see them by the white caps they were wearing, and there was nothing happening. The Holy Spirit spoke to me almost audibly. He said, “Stop preaching. They are not listening. There is a man in the front row, (I looked down. I saw him. His leg was sticking out straight) “go and pray for him.” I went down off the platform. I did not know who he was but everybody else did know who he was. He was a woodcutter. That was what his trade was, and what had happened was, a tree had fallen on top of him and crushed his leg, and they had put a steel pin through his leg. I walked up to him, laid my hands upon him, prayed the prayer of faith, “In the name of Jesus Christ, the Miracle-worker”, asked him to stand up, we took the crutches away and he was totally healed. He was running back and forwards in front of the platform and the people went wild. I didn't have to make an altar call that day. They wanted to give their lives to Jesus before I had finished speaking, and the funny thing was too, amazingly, after the service, the muslim people came behind the big Seed Sower which I was preaching off, and they brought their sick children and their sick people for prayer. We prayed for the muslims for a long time after that service. One genuine miracle equals a thousand sermons!Jesus bless you and goodbye!

Eat or Be Eaten by Dr Rick Bein Rickbein.com https://www.amazon.com/Eat-Be-Eaten-Rick-Bein/dp/1963718011 The issue of food can be interpreted in two ways. As a geographical agriculturist, I have focused on food production around the world, but also on being faced with predatory action. These stories relate such events in my life. Some are humorous and some are educational. my Peace Corps experience provided the spark that led to this series of adventures and observations. Farming strategies vary tremendously around the world, from my home farm in Colorado to those in Brazil, Sudan, Papua New Guinea, Mozambique. The picture depicts a Sudanese feast, where various food items are laid on an outstretched tablecloth on the ground to serve men dressed in formal attire. Only the men are eating and when they are sated the women come to eat what is left over. Notice the only the right hands are touching the food. The left hand is considered foul and would contaminate the food.

Do you live in a way that maximizes your well-being? Chances are, the answer to that question is no. Our modern way of living, some suggest, is incompatible with a thriving lifestyle. While the notion that many factors impact our overall health and wellness is not necessarily far-fetched, you may be surprised by the argument that some of the strongest factors are relational — both with one another and with the earth. Family Physician and public health professor Dr. Wendy Johnson explores this concept in her newest book, Kinship Medicine: Cultivating Interdependence to Heal the Earth and Ourselves. Johnson asserts that the solution to many of the causal factors of poor health — loneliness, industrial diets, systemic inequality, profit-based healthcare — are about humanity's interconnectedness to people and planet. Examples in Kinship Medicine include information on how trauma can be passed down for generation and how eliminating one organism in an ecosystem can affect all others. Her work also posits that our relationship to non-human life is essential to our well-being, and community action is stronger than individual efforts. With examples from public health, sociology, anthropology, human ecology, and her experience as a doctor, Dr. Johnson advocates for a shift in society that could lead to a healthier future. Wendy Johnson is a family physician, public health professor, activist and writer who has spent her life advocating for a world where everyone can live long lives in equitable communities. Her career includes stints scaling up HIV treatment in Mozambique, overseeing an urban health department, and most recently, directing a community clinic in Santa Fe. She has a Master of Public Health from Johns Hopkins and holds faculty appointments at the University of Washington and the University of New Mexico. She currently practices family and addiction medicine in rural Northern New Mexico with El Centro Family Health. Dr. Johnson has been a vocal activist on many progressive issues locally and globally and is a two-time TEDx speaker. Tessa Hulls is an artist, writer, and adventurer who is equally likely to disappear into the backcountry or a research library. Her debut graphic memoir, Feeding Ghosts, received the National Book Critics Circle John Leonard Prize, the Libby Book Award, and the Anisfield-Wolf Award, and was a finalist for the Kirkus Prize and the Pacific Northwest Book Award, and nominated for the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. She's pivoting her career to fuse her two great loves of creativity and the wilderness by becoming a comics journalist working with field scientists studying ecological resilience and climate change in remote environments, and she would love to hear from you if you want to partner with her on this endeavor.

Luthando Dziba espère «inspirer une génération de scientifiques africains» à la tête de l'Ipbes

Après des années d'expérience sur le terrain dans la conservation des grands mammifères africains, le scientifique sud-africain Luthando Dziba a pris le 1er octobre 2025 les rênes de la Plateforme intergouvernementale sur la biodiversité et les services écosystémiques (Ipbes). Souvent surnommé le « Giec de la biodiversité », cette instance scientifique et politique mondiale – près de 150 pays en sont membres - fait référence pour guider les politiques de préservation de la nature à partir des travaux de milliers de chercheurs. Pour la première fois, un scientifique africain en prend la tête. Pour sa première interview depuis sa prise de fonction, il est au micro de Lucile Gimberg, du service environnement de RFI. RFI : Vous êtes le premier scientifique africain à diriger la plateforme scientifique et intergouvernementale sur la biodiversité, l'Ipbes. C'est l'équivalent du Giec pour la biodiversité. Qu'est-ce que cela signifie pour vous et pour le continent ? Quels sujets allez-vous portez ? Luthando Dziba : L'Ipbes est vraiment LA plateforme de politique scientifique la plus fiable pour fournir des informations sur la biodiversité aux décideurs. C'est donc un immense privilège pour moi d'avoir été invité à diriger l'Ipbes. Ce que j'apporte, je pense, ce sont de nombreuses années d'expérience dans le secteur de la conservation de la nature en Afrique. Une expérience très pratique, de gestion des défis sociaux et écologiques sur le continent. Et je pense que cette perspective africaine unique sera extrêmement bénéfique. Je crois aussi que ma contribution et ma présence à ce poste aideront à inspirer une génération de scientifiques africains à contribuer non seulement à la politique scientifique de leurs pays, mais aussi à se penser et à se voir comme des contributeurs au niveau mondial.  Les scientifiques africains sont-ils aujourd'hui bien représentés au sein de la communauté internationale en matière de biodiversité ? Donne-t-on assez d'importance aux savoirs africains aujourd'hui ? On a beaucoup œuvré pour améliorer la représentation des scientifiques des régions sous-représentées à l'Ipbes… comme l'Afrique, l'Europe de l'Est et parfois l'Amérique latine qui sont sous-représentées dans la communauté scientifique. Je pense que le point de départ pour l'Ipbes c'est vraiment de servir de plateforme à des voix très diverses, aux savoirs locaux et autochtones notamment, et à d'autres systèmes de connaissances. À lire aussiL'ONU donne son feu vert pour un Giec de la biodiversité Et puis nous ne voulons pas seulement nous concentrer sur la science de la biodiversité, nous voulons faire de la place aux sciences sociales pour avoir une vision beaucoup plus complète dans notre travail.  Quelles sont les spécificités de la biodiversité africaine ? On pense souvent aux grands mammifères du continent comme les éléphants, les lions ou encore les rhinocéros, mais la nature africaine est riche de bien plus que cela, non ? Tout à fait, et notre rapport sur la biodiversité en Afrique en 2018 a montré le caractère unique de cet assemblage de grands mammifères. Ce qui est parfois moins connu ou valorisé, c'est le fait que la biodiversité africaine a co-évolué avec les humains. Il y a beaucoup d'exemples sur le continent, mais je pense aux savanes boisées du Miombo. Ces forêts tropicales sèches traversent tout le continent, de l'Angola, sur la côte ouest, jusqu'à la Tanzanie, le Mozambique sur la côte est, et l'Afrique australe. Les arbres Miombo se sont adaptés et quand on les exploite, ils repoussent. Ils peuvent survivre à des années d'exploitation de la part des populations tant qu'elles en font un usage durable… c'est-à-dire tant qu'elles ne détruisent pas des arbres entiers ou des groupes d'arbres entiers. C'est assez unique !  Un peu partout dans le monde, les peuples autochtones et traditionnels sont montrés en exemple pour leur capacité à préserver la nature, les animaux, les sols, les arbres… Auriez-vous en tête des exemples en Afrique de ces pratiques bénéfiques pour la biodiversité ? Je pense à la façon dont les communautés ont répondu à la bilharziose dans les zones rurales du Sénégal. Au lieu de juste traiter cette maladie parasitaire, ils ont mis en place des actions qui avaient un effet combiné sur la sécurité alimentaire, la qualité de l'eau et leur santé. Concrètement, en retirant des espèces invasives des cours d'eau où proliféraient les parasites et les mollusques qui transmettent cette maladie, ces communautés ont réduit les taux d'infection des jeunes jusqu'à 32 %, ils ont amélioré la qualité de l'eau, mais aussi les revenus des familles rurales. Il existe des façons d'agir que nous apprenons en nous appuyant sur les communautés autochtones et locales, des façons de gérer les systèmes naturels pour qu'ils perdurent. Nous experts, nous pouvons apprendre de ces années, parfois millions d'années, où les gens ont su comment vivre avec la nature.  À lire aussiL'IPBES, «Giec de la biodiversité», prône des réponses globales et décloisonnées aux crises

It's Monday, October 6, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Muslims decapitated or shot 30 Christians in Mozambique, Africa Over 30 Christians were beheaded in a series of recent attacks in northern Mozambique, Africa by Islamic State-affiliated terrorists who also released graphic photographs showing the executions, shootings, and widespread arson, reports The Christian Post. The group targeted multiple villages across Cabo Delgado and Nampula provinces, setting fire to churches and homes in a campaign of violence against civilians. According to The Middle East Media Research Institute, the Islamic State Mozambique group released a 20-image photoset this week, documenting its operatives executing civilians by beheading and close-range gunfire, and burning down homes and churches. The Mozambican insurgency, active since 2017, has led to the deaths of at least 6,200 people. In Deuteronomy 32:35, God says, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time, their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near, and their doom rushes upon them.” The United Nations estimates that more than 1 million people in northern Mozambique have been displaced since the conflict began, due to a combination of militant violence, prolonged drought and extreme weather events. Open Doors ranks Mozambique, Africa as the 37th most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Nigerian Muslims killed kidnapped pastor after receiving ransom Armed Muslim groups in Kwara State, Nigeria killed a local pastor after abducting him and receiving ransom payments from his community, reports International Christian Concern. Rev. James Issa, a pastor with the Evangelical Church Winning All, was taken from Ekati village on August 28.  His abductors initially demanded $67,000. Weeks of negotiations followed, with family members, church leaders, and villagers contributing funds to secure his release.  The community raised $3,300, a sum far beyond the means of the rural community. The money was delivered to the kidnappers, but instead of releasing the pastor, the armed group demanded an additional $30,000. Before any further talks could take place, they killed Rev. Issa.  Netanyahu demands release of all 48 hostages in order to end war On Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that no part of U.S. President Donald Trump's peace plan will be enacted until all 48 hostages, alive and dead, are returned to Israeli territory, reports The Jerusalem Post. Additionally, Netanyahu stated that if the hostages are not released by Trump's deadline, "Israel will resume fighting with full backing from all involved countries." However, speaking to Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, President Trump told Netanyahu, “Bibi, this is your chance for victory.”  Currently, there is no set deadline for the hostage release, although negotiations to finalize the plan are set to begin in Cairo, Egypt today. An anonymous source told the Jerusalem Post that (a) Hamas, the Muslim terrorist group, is committed to reaching an agreement to end the war in the Gaza Strip and (b) the release of the hostages will be carried out gradually over several days through the International Red Cross. Secretary of State Marco Rubio appeared on NBC's “Meet the Press” with Kristen Welker. WELKER: “I want to start with these peace negotiations in the Middle East. Is this now the end of the war in Gaza?” RUBIO: “Well, not yet. There's some work remains to be done, and I would view it in two phases, in terms of understanding how to break this out. “The first piece of it, which is very clear from the letter in Hamas' response, is they have agreed to the President's hostage release framework. And what needs to happen now, and they acknowledge in the letter in their response, is there now needs to be meetings which are occurring, even as I speak to you now, and hopefully will be finalized very quickly on the logistics of that. “What that means is, who goes in to get them? Is it the Red Cross? You know, when do they show up? What place are they going to be? And the conditions have to be created for that to happen. You can't have bombs going off and fighting going on in the middle of this exchange. So, that's piece one. And we want to see that happen as soon as possible, all 48 hostages, both living and deceased. “The second part of it, it's even harder, and that is the long term piece. What happens after Israel pulls back to the yellow line, and potentially beyond that, as this thing develops? How do you create this Palestinian technocratic leadership that's not Hamas, that's not terrorists, and with the help of the international community? “How do you disarm any sort of terrorist groups that are going to be building tunnels and conducting attacks against Israel? How do you get them to demobilize? All that work -- that's going to be hard. But that's critical, because without that, you're not going to have lasting peace. You may get the hostages back, you may get a cessation of hostilities, but in the long term, it's going to happen all over again.” Hero Ukrainian soldier kills 27 Russian troops A heroic Ukrainian warrior killed 27 Russian soldiers singlehandedly while defending two bridges surrounded by enemy forces, reports The U.S. Sun. Rus spent over seven weeks crouched in a putrid-smelling basement protecting the crossings -- armed with nothing more than a firearm and pure grit. The valiant soldier has been recommended for the Hero of Ukraine medal, the country's highest military honor, for his brave work. He personally killed 27 Kremlin forces - steadfast in his defense of the crossings in Dopropilia, in Ukraine's Donetsk region. Speaking to The Times, he recalled the grim reality of spending almost two months taking cover in a gloomy basement as Russian drones buzzed overhead.  He could only use the toilet "at dusk or at dawn" over fears of being struck and for seven weeks only washed with baby wipes. First-ever woman becomes Archbishop of Canterbury Sarah Mullally has been chosen as the new Anglican archbishop of Canterbury, marking the first time a woman has been named to the highest ecclesiastical position in the Anglican Church, reports LifeSiteNews.com. In 1 Timothy 2:12, the Apostle Paul wrote, "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.” The seat of the archbishop of Canterbury had been vacant since January 7, 2025, when Archbishop Justin Welby resigned due to allegations of mishandling an abuse case involving John Smyth who beat Winchester Boarding School students until they bled, leaving permanent scars. MarketWatch: 22 states already in recession And finally, according to Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, the U.S. economy is very close to falling into a damaging contraction. Many states are already experiencing a recession. Zandi estimates that 22 states, plus the District of Columbia, are now experiencing persistent economic weakness and job losses that are likely to continue. Another 13 states are treading water. The overall picture is one of a weak U.S. economy that is vulnerable to being pushed into a ditch by a strong wind. The economist added, “The economy is still not in recession, but the risks are very high. We're on the precipice.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, October 6th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

RAMO Earth's Matthew Jordan joins the NatureBacked podcast to discuss the mission behind his platform, NatureOS—an operating system designed to enable nature-based solutions and help conservation projects thrive. In a voluntary carbon market that is often described as "fragmented" and "confused," Matthew shares his journey from hands-on conservation work in Mozambique to building technological tools that bridge the gap between dreamers and dollars. In this essential discussion, you will hear about: The Wild West Carbon Market: Why the voluntary carbon market is struggling, facing "significant headwinds," and the challenges of high-integrity credit development. The Funding Gap: The massive hurdle facing local developers—from small landowners to dedicated community groups—who have authentic, high-value projects but lack the institutional finance to professionalize. The Rise of NatureOS: How Matthew and his co-founder, Miguel Correia (an AI data scientist), are building tools based on machine learning and remote sensing to help projects quickly assess feasibility, reduce risk, and get closer to "bankable" status. Beyond Carbon: The emergence of new markets like Biodiversity Credits and how advanced technology can measure and monitor nature's services with a high degree of certainty, making nature one of the most valuable, yet currently unpriced, assets on the planet. Human Potential vs. AI: Matthew's unwavering optimism, even after a career seeing ecosystems struggle, and his belief that the human capacity for dedication and change will ultimately beat the challenges faced by the climate and conservation worlds. Tune in to understand how data and technology are being deployed to unlock the capital needed for genuine, on-the-ground nature restoration. Learn more about your ad choices.
